  1. The point is to make the entry clear as day and night. Either enter few days before 2 year anniversary or few days after. Don't make it a law exam question for CBP and USCIS by entering one day before, one dah after or on the day. Airline staff who looked at my I-751 extension letter couldn't add 48 months to my GC expiration date.
  2. Congrats! This is impressive. Which city?
  3. US LPRs are tax residents by definition and must file taxes on worldwide income.
  4. The estimates are random numbers. "Actively Reviewed" = Waiting in line to be reviewed.
  5. I wouldn't include it. You can write a short letter saying you now included correct payment and include it in packet.
  6. Biometric fees are already included in the filing fee. Are the kids dependants? Did they receive their conditional GCs on same day as you or within 90 days after you received GC? If yes to both questions, you only need to pay $750.
  7. You need to file I-751 in 90 day window before date on May 2025. You'll be able to apply for citizenship in February / March of 2026 if you're still married, living together and meet other criteria.
  8. You only need the form G-1450 when paying with credit card
  9. No, this is not a problem. USCIS organizes your documents as they need. Looks like incorrect payment is the reason for rejection
  10. What was amount on money order?
  11. No, you can resend everything they sent to you. Just make sure to correct all the issues they outlined.
  12. Verbal approvals are not legally binding. You may need to wait a little more for actual decision. Good luck!
  13. This is normal. I-751 take 2-3 years in a lot of cases nowadays. Most likely you'll get interviewed for both.
  14. You need to be married for 3 years and resident for 3 years to apply, which it seems you are. Did you file I-751? Is it already approved or still pending?
  15. Portland, OR? Processing times currently are 6.5 months, so you're getting close I'd think.
  16. Yes you can get RFE about passport bio page missing.
  17. This is very reasonable wait. Your local field office currently shows 7 months. https://egov.uscis.gov/processing-times/ You should get interview December 2024 / January 2025 based on this.
  18. Why is military physician involved here? I've never heard of using them in place of civil surgeon. Are you sure you don't want to file case on your own? I get it you, paid RapidVisa, but you may as well cut your losses here instead of dealing with their mistakes later which can cost you $$$$
  19. Don't ever file for neutralization. Naturalization is what you need. 5 years from 2021 is 2026. Are you applying based on marriage to US citizen? How are you eligible to apply now? Yes, you have to be living in your new state for 3 months before you can apply (if you meet other requirements). Make sure to get local DL etc meanwhile.
  20. Estimated time is hugely inaccurate anyway. Biometrics reuse happening later is totally OK. When I had I-751 pending, my biometrics were reused after about 5 months after filing. However, I've seen many cases stuck in initial received state. Those cases got biometrics reused after 11-12 months and decided before my case and other similar cases with biometrics reused earlier. You cannot read too much into this.
  21. I believe it still can be amended. The extra refund could potentially cover the N-400 fees or more. I guess it depends on how much effort you want to put in. If you don't want to do it - it's your right. It's unlikely going to be an issue. You may be asked about it too (small chance) so be ready to explain. Good luck!
  22. After few incidents of airlines losing my bags, I mostly travel with cabin bags even internationally, as I can live off that bag for 2 weeks. I rarely travel for 2+ weeks at a time, and when I do I just go to restroom / get coffee / check emails in baggage area. So GE makes sense... Plus TSA Pre benefits it comes with are useful.
  23. The burden of proof is always on you, not on USCIS. For them to grant any immigration benefit, you need to serve all the evidence on a silver plate. You need to make it all super clear and obvious, as you may have figured already.
